Heating Swanny (up the) ?

I have a snapped heater control cable (dash end) which controls the cool/warm flaps from the heat exchangers. Any where I can get a new one and any advice on fitting?

Help, its was cold today in the van. :roll:

Can't advise on the cables but as a temporary measure you can use cable ties or a bit of wire to hold the heat exchanger flaps open. You can access them from under the rear arches. Can be a bit fiddly but better than freezing.

new cables are available from JK - they can be a bit of a pig to fit if your not dropping the petrol tank but as already said cable tie the heater flaps open :ok nearly all others with any kind of heater issue use this method of 'permanent heat' with cable ties :wink:
